What Desi Arnaz was doing shooting off a gun in the middle of the night near his beach home? What William Frawley was addicted to? Did you know there was a three-act play written called I Love Lucy in 1953? Or whether or not the play was ever performed? That there was another "Lucy"-related play, written about Vivian Vance? Or that you can see where Lucy was born and grew up on a bus tour? The answers to these and many more questions are in this little bottle….

Discover if Desi really loved Lucy, or loved loosely. Author Michael Karol takes you back to the days of Hedda, Louella Walter and Rona, and adds his insightful commentary wherever applicable. He also takes you on a tour of Jamestown, Lucy's birthplace and the home of the Lucy-Desi Museum, currently enjoying a renaissance thanks to the watchful input of Lucie Arnaz and Desi Arnaz Jr. You'll be hard pressed to find another book that offers so much fun and insight into the world of Lucille Ball, as she lived it, in the public eye.
